Mass spectrometry – GCMS & LCMS

LCC

Service overview

Mass spectrometry is a technique for determining molecular mass and elemental composition (raw formula).

Its principle lies in the separation of charged molecules according to their mass/charge ratio (m/z).

The analyzers are self-service internally for LCC applicants after training.

Two devices are available.
